A Busy October

After many days of rain, Tessa's toys were all getting a little old. So I brought the stroller inside. She had a blast pushing her babies/bunnies/toys around the living room.
Calvin came over for dinner
Rylan came to play.
A cold spell sent us to the store to get a hat/mittens and winter coat.

She is loving the swing out back, too bad we didn't put it up earlier.
On a one rainy day, we met some friends at a "bounce house". Tessa did NOT enjoy it. I had tried to have her skip her morning nap, it didn't go well. Being tired, combined with the "scary" loud fans to keep the things inflated, left Tessa scared and whiny :( We'll have to try it again after she's had a good nap.

Doesn't everyone sit in their drum?

A little hay maze fun with Calvin
We picked out a pumpkin, now to carve it...we'll wait for Tim to get home to do that.

Looking for her belly button, a difficult task when you have one-piece outfit on. :)

In Milford (Part Two)

Anyone want to play tennis?
Cute Blakeley, a tad fussy...and by that I mean she let out a few unhappy noises.

In Milford (Part One)

We've been in MA since last Thursday evening. Tessa was great on the 7 hour car trip up. I had planned to stop at a playground along the way, things didn't work out quite as I would have liked but we got here in one piece without much fussing.

Tessa finally got the bottom eye teeth, so the tooth count is up to 16 now! She was mighty fussy/clingly over the weekend, hopefully only as a result of the tooth.

Friday we got to see my cousin Rachel's new baby, what a cutie! Tessa had a good time going through all the toys Blakeley has yet to use.

On Saturday, we went apple picking with Nana, Jen, Cole, Kevin, and Kayla.

Sunday my uncle Ed, aunt Celine, and cousin Julia came over. It was great to see them, as its been far too long! We are all really excited that we will see them again on Christmas Eve!


Monday we got to see Tim's grandparents DD and BopBop, as well as his aunt Debbie. It was nice that our paths crossed here in Milford, as they live in CO.

Wednesday we got to see Erica, Jim, Connor, and Ellen at the Smith's. Tessa had a good time climbing around their swingset and swing.

The rest of the week has been spent taking Tessa to various playgrounds, parks, and indoor playplaces. Its been fun!

We're heading to see Blakeley again today, so hopefully we'll take some more pictures. Tomorrow Tim gets into town and we'll see his dad, and maybe his brothers.

And then Sunday Tim and I leave for Napa! We can't wait!!
I hate how long/frustrating it can be to upload pictures to blogger, so you can find more/better pictures here: Pictures
